GREAT GALEOTO AT FAIRYLAND THEATER
As one of the greatest attractions of the year, "The Great Galeoto," by Jose Echegaray, will be presented by the Lance and Lute Dramatic Society of the U.S.C., on the stage of the Fairyland theatre next Tuesday night, Jan. 31.
The play will mark the first presentation of a standard type of drama at Anaheim in a number of years. Many critics have classed Echegaray as the greatest playwright of the nineteenth century, and he has often been rated as Spain's leading dramatist. Of his numerous plays, "The Great Galeoto" has been most successful. Paris, London, New York, Berlin and Madrid have received the play both as an artistic and commercial success.
Despite the commercial success, "The Great Galeoto" is recognized as an epoch-making drama. The play is unique in that its theme is idle talk. Its chief character is the great babbling public, the "they" of the expression "they say." According to Echegaray, "they" is a monster. The public is soldom malicious in its talk, yet idle gossip could not affect more harm upon individuals, were it deliberately calculated to be destructive, than it does now, is the substance of this great play.
"The Great Galeoto" is also noteworthy as an example of plot construction. Echegaray, besides being a dramatist, was a mathematician at the Escuela in Madrid, and, as might be expected the plot of the "Great Galeoto" is developed with the mathematical precision of a problem in geometry. The action in each act is systematically built up, leading up to a most dramatic close, the curtain always coming down upon a very intense dramatic scene. Like a perfect pattern, the arising of complications, and the subsequent solution of the problem, hinges on the intense climax of the third act.
In the old Arthurian romances, Galeoto was the go-between for Gweneviere, Lancelot and King Arthur. Galeoto never meant to start trouble, still by his unconscious doings was the cause of much misery. Similarly, according to Echegaray, idle talk is the great Galeoto of the present-day society, the great go-be-

ATTEMPT TO HOLD UP DAMAGED FRUIT
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 24.—More rigid measures to prevent the transportation of damaged citrus fruit will be taken by representatives of the California Fruit Growers' Ass'n at a meeting in San Bernardino today. Many southern counties will be represented. The board of supervisors will be asked to strengthen the state laws with a new ordinance, following which other boards will be requested to pass similar ordinances.
The state law provides: "It is unlawful for any person, firm of corporation to ship, offer for shipment, sell or offer for sale citrus fruits in boxes or in bulk if contents of any package or if fruit in bulk contains 15 per cent or more of citrus fruit which on a transverse section through the center shows a marked drying in 20 per cent or more of exposed pulp."
The new county ordinance would forbid shipment of fruit where "15 per cent or more of such citrus fruits show in two or more segments marked dry or other marked evidence of frost injury indicated by waterlogged condition of portion of segment walls or by the presence of crystal or crystalline deposit on outer segment walls."

REVENGE STALKING
WIFE AND ELOPER
Bereft of wife and war cross and openly vowing vengeance against the man who stole them, Charles O. Gruber, World War veteran, who has tracked the despoiler and the woman from Sah Francisco to Southern California, had today enlisted the aid of the Santa Ana police in his search.
Ralph Witte, 22, also a soldier, but said to be wanted at the Presidio, San Francisco, as a deserter, since he is asserted to have fled with Gruber's wife, Mrs. Winifred Gruber, 30 is the man sought by the husband.
"Just let me get my hands on him." Gruber grated out the words as he told his story to City Marshal Sam Jernigan just before starting on to San Diego to continue his search.
It was no search of an infatuated man for a beautiful wife, that Gruber portrayed. In describing her he frankly admitted that she is bow legged, had bad looking teeth, a prominent nose, and a goiter scar on her neck; also that she is dressed in worn clothing. She looks younger, however, than her thirty years, he said.
But unlovely as she may be, Gruber wants her. He wants, also the croix de guerre that he won through his distinguished services with the A. E. F. in France. From the manner of his speech, there would be a reckoning if he should find the man who is said to have stolen them.
The elopement, he says, grew out of chance meetings between Mrs. Gruber and Witte in a San Francisco park. In poor health, Mrs. Gruber was accustomed to spend much time on the park benches. Witte "seraped an acquaintance" with her there, Gruber said.
"He led her away when she hardly able to walk," Gruber said.
Perilously near his last cent, Gruber is pressing the pursuit relentlessly, borne up by his spirit of revenge. The fugitive couple, too it seems, are begging alms as they go.
Gruber picked up their trail in Los Angeles, where he learned that Witte had left the woman in a park while he went to the Salvation Army and other charitable institutions to solicit aid. A few dollars were gathered in that way.
MEXICAN MAKES SCULPTURE
15,000-MILE VOYAGE

SYDNEY, Jan. 24—One of the record sailing trips of history vas completed here a short time ago, when the yawl Amaryllis of 28 tons register, commanded by Lieut. Mulhauser, an Englishman, completed a 15,000-mile trip from Plymouth, England, which lasted nearly a year.
After clearing Plymouth, the yawl make for Spain, thence to Madeira, the Canaries, the Barbadoes, around Jamaica to Colon, Galápagos, the Marqueses, Society Islands, Cook Island, Friendly Islands, Fiji, Noumes and Sydney.

BROKEN SKIN
W. E. ALLEN
California Biological Feature Service.
About 12 weeks ago a piece of skin about one-fourth of an inch square was torn loose on the back of my hand by a projecting nail. The next day a similar piece was torn loose near it by a machine bolt. Since in both cases the injury was clean I followed my customary procedure of tearing away all of the broken shreds so as to leave the injured surface open to air and light.
The first injury healed uniformly and rapidly and the broken place was filled up with new tissue inside of a week. The second injury started recovery equally well but on the third day I was careless enough to let it be soaked with water. The water softened the edges of the scab so that a part of it raised slightly when drying thus admitting beneath it a small army of microbes to friendly shelter from light and air while at the same time providing plenty of food and an ideal temperature for growth.
Although I noticed the slightly loosened edges of the scab at once I did not notice evidence of the invasion of microbes for two or three days when a peculiar soreness and softness together with a redness around the spot showed that healing was not going well. In fact a needle puncture revealed the presence of pus, the whitish portion of which consisted mainly of white blood corpuscles which had sacrificed themselves in fighting the invading microbes.
Being away from home where it was more convenient to let healing go unadvised than it was to use for so slight an injury the necessary materials I made no attempt to interfere. As a result a pus pocket formed to a depth two or three times the thickness of the skin and healing was not completed for three or four weeks. The scar is still very distinct although the one from the first injury disappeared some time ago.
As I have told it this may not be a very pretty story but there are some extremely interesting points involved and they have great practical value. For one thing there was no more fear involved in one case than in the other yet one healed in one third less time than did the other although the injuries were less than one inch apart. It is also true that I did not on account of either injury resort to spinal adjustment or medical treatment, or consult an astrologer or clairvoyant or even the ubiquitous outjja board. Surely difference in healing must have been due to purely natural causes.
It should also be evident from this experience that a little injury may easily become serious if carelessly handled and that microbial enemies are always ready to attack an unprotected spot. It is likewise plain that most of them cannot successfully attack a slightly broken part of the skin if plenty of air and light is admitted and if later lack of protection
He led her away when she hardly able to walk. Gruber said.
Perilously near his last cent, Gruber is pressing the pursuit relentlessly, borne up by his spirit of revenge. The fugitive couple, too it seems, are begging alms as they go.
Gruber picked up their trail in Los Angeles, where he learned that Witte had left the woman in a park while he went to the Salvation Army and other charitable institutions to solicit aid. A few dollars were gathered in that way.
The husband also had but a small fund left. He drew wages amounting to $50 when he left his position in San Francisco to follow his wife and Witte, but the money is now nearly all spent.
"It will be easy to fix Witte when I find him," he told Jernigan. "All I need do is have him arrested for the army authorities. They will handle him. But I want one chance at himself first."

Village Gossip
When is a Japanese not a Japanese?
T. Nishikawa says he is an American citizen, and he desires to be registered as a voter.
County Clerk J. M. Backs can't see it.
Attorney Roland Thompson, representing the Oriental, may bring a mandamus action against Backs to compel him to see it.
Nishikawa, a grower of vegetables on the San Joquin ranch, appeared at the county clerk's office several days ago, and said he desired to register. He declared that he was born in Hawaii in December, 1900, a few months after Hawaii was annexed to the U.S.
Backs asked to see Nishikawa's birth certificate. Nishikawa had none.
When Backs put the matter up to District Attorney A. P. Nelson that official expressed his opinion that Backs was right in demanding satisfactory evidence concerning the time and place of birth of the Japanese.
Nelson dropped a line to Attorney General Webb at Sacramento and Webb concurred in Nelson's opinion.
"I am not satisfied," said Backs to Attorney Thompson. "I'll not register this man without a court order."
Thompson said that his client at

I work in a tailor shop and that line of work has been very slack this year and I am home part of the time. I do not like to take any chances, so I consulted my friends, and one lady said, ‘Take Lydia Pinkham’s medicine,’ so I did. I have felt better right along and am in good enough health to go to work. I recommend your Vegetable Compound and Sanative Wash to all.’” — Mrs. Mary Enrico, 459 N. Carpenter St., Chicago, Illinois.
